The Journey of Feng Zun 2
Chapter 43

"He had awakened the sleeping tiger, it was difficult to retreat. Shen Chuyun is in a difficult situation." thought Emperor Long.

It was Shen Chuyun who proposed this duel. If he dared to retreat, it would deal a crushing blow to his reputation. However if he dared to fight back, it was likely that Feng Zun would cut him down mercilessly.

This is what it means to be stuck on both sides. However, that was when Feng Zun suddenly changed his mind, “If you want to lower your head and admit defeat, I will let you go.”

Everyone is dumbfounded.

Emperor Long and Jiu Feng were also astonished, since when was Feng Zun so soft?

Even Shen Chuyun was dazed, and her heart was indecisive.

“You can't admit defeat!”

Suddenly, a hoarse low voice rang out, “He wants to destroy your Dao Heart! If you lower your head, then you must overcome difficulties for the sake of difficulties in the future!”

This sound spread throughout the area.

Shen Chuyun broke out in cold sweat.

If you think about it, it is true. If he were to lower his head now, it would be tantamount to admitting that he was afraid of Feng Zun, it would definitely leave a shadow that could hardly be removed and give birth to a demon in his heart.

If in the future, he got a chance to defeat Feng Zun, of course it would work.

But if he can't? As long as Feng Zun was alive, the shadow of this concession would give birth to a heart demon that eroded and destroyed his Dao Heart!

When cultivating and searching for the height of the Dao Road, there was no greater taboo than the matter of one's mental state!

Emperor Long and Jiu Feng suddenly understood. So, Feng Zun's words were meant to attack his opponent's heart!

Then, a low and hoarse voice sounded once again. The voice echoed throughout the surrounding sky and earth, and it was hard to know where it came from, “Feng Zun, as long as you agreed to delay this duel for one month, as long as you agreed to delay, I promise that the Hidden Sword Hill will never oppose you or the imperial family again.”

“What is the Hidden Sword Hill thinking, to dare to suggest such conditions?” Feng Zun said coldly, “But I do agree with that.”

He then looked at Shen Chuyun once again, “I will give you a month's time, I hope that when the time comes, you will become stronger from now.”

With that, he placed his hands behind his back, turned around, and left.

Shen Chuyun shouted, “If you are not afraid of the Hidden Sword Hill, why not attack now? Rest assured, even if I die in battle, I will not escape!”

He spoke with a strong conviction, and he sounded very determined.

“I wasn't interested in this duel from the start, and the reason for my disinterest was simple, it was because you were too weak. So, I have absolutely no interest in fighting you.

“Oh yes, if you're still this weak a month from now, I won't let you waste any more time talking nonsense. I will definitely slash at you before you can finish a single sentence.”

As his voice was still floating in the air, the tall and upright figure of Feng Zun disappeared in the horizon.

“Too weak...” Shen Chuyun stood in a daze there, glued to his place.

He was the best expert of the younger generation of the Hidden Sword Hill Sect, a genius monster that rose from ancient times, a figure that occupied the first position in the Star Ranking Ranking, and his name was famous throughout the continent.

No one had ever called him weak before!

"Too weak?" The audience hardly dared to believe their ears.

Otherwise, why would everyone spend so much time arguing about whether Feng Zun or Shen Chuyun were stronger?

Now, however, Feng Zun had left and surrendered in the duel, not because he was afraid of the threat represented by the Hidden Cloud Sword Hill, either, but because he thought Shen Chuyun was too weak to be worth fighting against!

Who is not surprised by this statement?

“Emperor Long, Hidden Sword Hill will keep his promise, we will not oppose the imperial family anymore!” said that hoarse voice.

He again said, “Chuyun, we have to go... The Radiant Era will arrive in seven days. When the time comes, the Hidden Sword Hill will strive to obtain the rarest fortune for you! Then, a month from now, you and Feng Zun can fight to see who is superior!”

Shen Chuyun's expression was filled with uncertainty.

After a while, he took a deep breath and said with determination, “A month from now, you must not interfere, even if I die in battle!”

With that, this ancient time monster that was at the first rank of the Star Ranking stepped into the air and left.

Every cultivator who witnessed this felt disappointed in his heart.

It seemed that in the end, Shen Chuyun and Feng Zun would not duel today.

Even so, who did not realize that Feng Zun had preceded Shen Chuyun?

Time pass.

Qinglong Courtyard.

Sunlight shone on the pine and bamboo trees in the courtyard.

A light breeze blew, bringing with it the fresh scent of grass and earth.

Lin Yunlan noticed the white-robed young man in front of her, who was still lying on his woven chair in silence for a while before saying, “I have to go for a while.”

Feng Zun did not expect that, “Are you going back to the Blue Lotus Realm?”

Lin Yunlan shook her head, “The Lin family has definitely sent more experts to the Luo Mainland than just the three of them, so there is something I should investigate and make sure.”

"What's that?" asked Feng Zun.

“I am worried because there is a possibility that the crazy killer of the Lin Clan is also coming.” said Lin Yunlan.

The crazy assassin of the Lin Clan?

When he discussed about the crazy assassin, Lin Yunlan's expression became very serious.

But Feng Zun looked instantly interested, “Is he strong?”

“He is not only strong, he is also crazy.” said Lin Yunlan grimly. 

"His name was Lin Xiong, and he was a madman who proved his Dao Path through slaughter and murder. He was obsessed with killing his enemies on the battlefield, in the Blue Lotus Realm, his hands were covered in blood because he had killed so many experts."

"Lin Xiong looked gentle, even shy at times, and he was very easy to like. However, deep down, he was a deviant who pursued the Dao of Slaughter and liked bloodshed."

"He was currently at the mid-level Immortal Ascension Realm. He did not have much seniority in the Lin Family, but he remained a very high position. Even someone like Eighth Elder Lin Yhang should treat him with respect."
